Fast, Reliable Roof Installation Across Sunrise
Roof installation in Sunrise, FL typically costs between $8,400 and $16,200 for a full tear-off and reroof of a standard single-family home, with architectural shingle systems landing right in that range. Most projects in Sunrise take five to seven business days once materials arrive, and the permit and inspection timeline is what it is here: Broward County’s High Velocity Hurricane Zone rules mean no shortcuts. That’s a good thing. If you’re weighing a new roof on a home in Springtree, Welleby, or any Sunrise neighborhood built before 2001, call (754) 354-1224 and we’ll talk through exactly what your roof needs before you spend a dollar.
Why Mercer Roofing Co Fort Lauderdale Is Sunrise’s Preferred Roof Installation Company
We’ve worked on enough Sunrise roofs to know the difference between one that passes a Broward County wind-mitigation inspection and one that fails it. Homeowners here call us after getting three quotes that don’t match, after a buyer’s inspector flags an original 1980s roof, or after a storm reveals what the last roofer left under the shingles. Our crews know the neighborhoods: the ranch homes off Nob Hill Road, the two-story homes along Sunset Strip, the condo low-slope sections off Pine Island Road. When you call, a live person answers, and we coordinate scheduling from our Miami office so a Sunrise crew reaches you without the runaround.
Every technician who arrives at your door is background-checked, identity-verified, uniformed, and carrying a photo ID badge under the Threshold Verified standard. We send you their name and photo before they arrive, so you know exactly who’s about to ring the bell. Grant Whitlock leads our team with one standing rule: the written price comes first, and the written 365-Day Done Right Promise covers the work after. No Sunrise homeowner should have to guess who’s on the ladder or what the invoice will say.
Styles & brands we work with
Roof Flashing Installation in Sunrise
Roof flashing installation in Sunrise is the line of metal that seals the places water wants to get in: chimneys, vent pipes, skylights, valleys, and the drip edge where shingles meet the gutter. Sunrise’s summer thunderstorms drop an inch of rain in twenty minutes, and hurricane season pushes that rain sideways under any lifted shingle edge. Flashing that was reused from the last roof, or installed with the wrong gauge, is where those leaks start.
When Flashing Fails First
On a full tear-off, cheap crews sometimes leave the old flashing in place to save a few hundred dollars. That’s a false economy in Sunrise. The old metal has already expanded and contracted through twenty years of Broward heat, and the nail holes from the previous roof are still there. We replace drip edge, pipe boots, valley metal, and wall step flashing on every full roof installation we do in Sunrise. It’s not an upgrade. It’s the only way the roof stays sealed.
What Flashing Work Costs
Replacing flashing as part of a full roof installation in Sunrise adds roughly $900 to $1,600 to the job, depending on how many penetrations your roof has and whether we’re re-flashing a chimney. Standalone flashing repairs, without a reroof, typically run $380 to $750 per location. A written quote breaks this out line-by-line so you see what you’re paying for before work starts.
TPO Roofing Installation in Sunrise
TPO roofing installation in Sunrise is how we handle flat and low-slope areas: the carport, the back patio cover, the addition off the kitchen, the flat section over a condo unit’s entrance. TPO is a heat-welded thermoplastic membrane that reflects heat instead of absorbing it, which matters on a Sunrise afternoon when the sun has been beating on a flat roof since nine in the morning.
Where TPO Belongs in Sunrise Homes
Most Sunrise homes built between the 1960s and 2000s have at least one low-slope section, and those sections are where water ponds after a storm. If a roofer tells you shingles will work on a 2/12 pitch or less, walk away. TPO, installed with a heat-welded seam system, is what holds up under standing water and Hurricane Season UV. We install TPO to Florida Building Code wind-uplift standards, not just glued down at the edges.
TPO Pricing for Sunrise Flat Roofs
A TPO roof installation for a typical Sunrise carport or patio cover runs $4,200 to $7,800, depending on square footage, insulation board, and whether the decking needs replacing first. Larger flat sections over additions run higher. We write the quote before the work starts, and the written guarantee covers the seams and membrane for the full term we specify.
Trusted Brands We Service in Sunrise
We install and repair the shingle systems Sunrise homeowners actually ask for, and we stock common components locally so a project isn’t delayed waiting on a truck from out of state. For architectural shingle roofs, we frequently install CertainTeed Landmark and Owens Corning Duration lines, both Florida Product Approved for Broward County’s HVHZ. For flat and low-slope sections, IKO and other manufacturer-recognized TPO membranes carry Miami-Dade approval. When you call, we’ll specify which product family fits your home and show you the product approval documentation in writing. No mystery brands, no “trust me.” The name of the membrane and shingle goes on your quote.

AfterCommon Roof Installation Problems We See in Sunrise Homes
- Original 1980s roofs with no secondary water barrier. In Springtree and Welleby, homes built before the code updates often have #30 felt only, no self-adhered underlayment over the decking. Any water that gets past a shingle goes straight to the attic, and wind-mitigation inspectors flag it immediately.
- Low-slope sections covered with shingles instead of TPO or a membrane. Sunrise ranches and patio homes have those flat carport roofs. Shingles on a low pitch trap water and rot the decking from underneath, usually within a few hurricane seasons.
- Staple-down 3-tab shingles with four nails. Broward County’s HVHZ requires architectural shingles nailed to a six-nail, high-wind pattern. A roof with the wrong fastening looks fine from the street and fails inspection from the attic side.
- Flashing reused on a full tear-off. Old flashing around vents, chimneys, and valleys is the single most common source of leaks in Sunrise after a reroof. The water intrusion happens exactly where the metal was left alone.
Pricing for Roof Installation in Sunrise, FL
A full tear-off and architectural shingle roof installation in Sunrise runs $8,400 to $16,200 for most single-family homes up to about 2,200 square feet. The range breaks down along three lines: the condition of the decking (rotted sheathing replacement adds $1,200 to $2,800), whether the home has a flat section needing TPO instead of shingles, and the wind-load documentation package. A cheap quote in Sunrise often leaves out the permit, the mid-roof dry-in inspection, or the self-adhered underlayment. Our written quote includes the line items for all of it. Call (754) 354-1224 for a free estimate, and you’ll see every dollar before anything gets nailed down.

FAQs About Roof Installation in Sunrise
Sunrise is in Broward County’s High Velocity Hurricane Zone, so every roof system component must carry either Miami-Dade or Florida Product Approval, and the roof must be installed to the HVHZ wind-load requirements for architectural shingles: six nails per shingle, ASTM D7158 high-wind fastening pattern, and a secondary water barrier over the decking.
A compliant quote includes the Broward County permit, a self-adhered secondary water barrier, synthetic underlayment, new flashing at every penetration and the drip edge, the six-nail high-wind fastening pattern, and the mid-roof dry-in inspection that verifies all of it before shingles go down. Cheap quotes in Sunrise often skip the second layer of protection and the documented inspection, so the roof passes visually but fails wind-mitigation review later.
A properly documented roof installation gives your insurer proof of the HVHZ wind-load features, which can qualify you for wind-mitigation credits that reduce the windstorm portion of your premium. In Sunrise, those credits only apply when the documentation is complete: the permit, the in-progress inspection, the six-nail pattern, and the secondary water barrier all have to be on record. We help you keep every piece of that paperwork. Call (754) 354-1224 and we’ll walk through what your quote should include.
Those homes were built before Florida adopted the secondary water barrier requirement, so many still have original 1980s shingles over #30 felt with no self-adhered membrane, and the fastening pattern predates the current HVHZ six-nail standard. Wind-mitigation inspectors look for current-code features regardless of when the home was built, so the only way to pass is a full tear-off that installs the barrier and fastening the inspectors are checking for. We’ve done that exact reroof on the ranch homes throughout Springtree and Welleby.
A TPO roof installation is a heat-welded membrane designed for flat or nearly flat sections, like carports and patio covers, where water ponds and shingles would fail. Architectural shingles are for sloped roof planes. In Sunrise, most homes need both: shingles on the main slopes and TPO on the flat sections, and a good quote prices them separately rather than forcing shingles where they don’t belong.
